The storyline was later refocused on first responders by producer Craig Perry, who said, “These individuals confront death daily and make decisions that determine life or death.” This idea underwent numerous screenplay revisions, culminating in the current script penned by Lori Evans Taylor and Guy Busick from a story by Jon Watts.
